As Ye Qingmei went out to meet her biological mother, Fang Yuan, Li Xiaotian sat on the sofa, his eyes flickering.
The Zhao family, the capital, was he going to start dealing with matters of the capital so soon?
The Li family of the capital, he hadn't expected ten years to pass so quickly.
Li Xiaotian lay on the sofa, a secret hidden deep within his heart playing out in his mind.
It was his background, even the earliest of those who followed him in the Dragon King Hall did not know his background.
Ten years ago, Li Xiaotian went to the international war zone alone. No one knew him. By the time his name echoed throughout the world, everyone knew him, but no one knew his past.
Li Xiaotian, the son of the previous patriarch of the Li family in the capital of Great Qin!
And the Li family was one of the three great families in the capital of Great Qin, several times more powerful than the Zhao family!
Li Zhen, the previous patriarch of the Li family, was assassinated during a trip abroad with his wife and son, and the entire family of three were reduced to ashes.
This matter was the Li family's biggest secret, and also the biggest secret in the hearts of many aristocratic families in the capital of Great Qin.
Everyone knew the tricks involved in this matter, but no one dared to speak out.
The Li family patriarch Li Zhen and his family of three died in an assassination. The Li family explained to the outside world that they were killed by enemies abroad.
But the truth was that Li Zhen and his family of three were killed by their own people in the Li family!
And the cause of the incident was the position of the Li family patriarch, the power and status held by the Li family patriarch.
Every family had secrets that could not be revealed to the outside world. Everyone would only believe what they saw on the surface, and no one would care how many twists and turns and darkness they had experienced.
The current Li family was still one of the three great families of Great Qin, with immense power. In Great Qin, the Li family controlled one-tenth of Qin's commercial resources, and their influence in official circles was sky-high.
And abroad, the Li family even secretly controlled several small countries and had its own forces in the international war zone, the Heavenly Army!
It could be said that as the head of the Li family, the power he wielded was terrifyingly unimaginable to ordinary people.
When Li Zhen was the patriarch of the Li family, he ostensibly took his family abroad for vacation, but in reality, he was inspecting the Li family's forces.
He was guarded by Li family escorts and followed by hundreds of Heavenly Army soldiers. Under such circumstances, the Li family patriarch was actually assassinated. How ridiculous was this?
Li Xiaotian gritted his teeth. Perhaps no one knew that Li Zhen had known he would die long ago, and had secretly replaced his son while abroad.
Therefore, the ten-year-old son of Li Zhen, Li Tian, who died at that time, was actually a fake!
And the real son of Li Zhen, who escaped to the international war zone alone and changed his name, his new name was Li Xiaotian!
Ten years. Li Xiaotian clenched his fist. He had waited for ten years! That revenge should be taken!
It wasn't that Li Xiaotian deliberately waited ten years. In fact, when his father arranged for him to escape, he repeatedly warned him not to think about revenge and to live a peaceful life.
He probably never thought that Li Xiaotian would have the opportunity and strength to take revenge on the Li family at that time.
Li Zhen had warned Li Xiaotian not to think about revenge, but Li Xiaotian was just a child at the time, his heart filled with hatred. He cried and asked his father, what should he do if he wanted revenge?
Li Xiaotian still remembered the scene at that time. His father slapped him and said, "We are born of the same root, why be so hasty? We are all of the Li family bloodline, why fight amongst ourselves?"
Finally, his father, Li Zhen, said to Li Xiaotian that if Li Xiaotian had the strength to take revenge in the future, he should wait for ten years, because the Li family had raised Li Xiaotian for ten years, so he should also give the Li family ten years.
Therefore, even though Li Xiaotian had the strength to destroy the Li family five years ago, he endured it for five years!
During these ten years, he had strictly abided by his father's promise and had not taken any action against the Li family. He had acted like a stranger. Even when the Lord of the Heavenly Army, Li Mi, visited the Dragon King Hall a few years ago, he had acted normally and had not made things difficult for him.
But now, the ten-year agreement had arrived, and he no longer had to endure!
Li Xiaotian's eyes flickered. He dialed Long Yi's phone and ordered in a low voice.
"Get me all the information about the Li family in the capital, especially the truth about the assassination of Li Zhen, the patriarch of the Li family, ten years ago!"
"Yes, Big Brother!" Long Yi's heart trembled. His intuition told him that Li Xiaotian would never issue such an order so suddenly.
The Li family? The truth about the assassination of the patriarch ten years ago? After Long Yi hung up the phone, he pondered, and then his eyes widened in shock!
Ten years ago!! Li Xiaotian, his elder brother, also appeared in the international war zone ten years ago!!
Li Xiaotian, the Li family, Li Zhen! Long Yi's breathing became rapid. There must be a connection between these three. Even without investigating, he could guess many truths.
But then, Long Yi took a deep breath. This was his elder brother's secret. Since his elder brother had not explicitly told him, he could not investigate it privately, not even imagine it in his heart.
Thinking of this, Long Yi quickly picked up the phone and ordered the Dragon King Hall's spies in Qin to start investigating all matters related to the Li family, and also ordered the troops in the war zone to start investigating the Li family's Heavenly Army legion.

After a while, Ye Qingmei and Fang Yuan walked in. Seeing this, Li Xiaotian immediately stood up. He saw that both of them had tear marks on their faces, but their eyes were relieved and joyful. He immediately understood.
"Xiaotian, this is my mother, Fang Yuan," Ye Qingmei said with red eyes. Outside just now, Fang Yuan had explained the cause and effect of that year to her. And Fang Yuan had also been searching for Ye Qingmei all these years. It wasn't until more than ten days ago that she unexpectedly met Fang Yuan when she represented Fengxing at a conference, so Fang Yuan rushed to Jiangnan to recognize her.
"Hello, I am Qingmei's husband, Li Xiaotian," Li Xiaotian said with a smile. He did not interfere with Ye Qingmei's decision. He was even happier that she had found her relatives.
"Good! Good! Good!" Fang Yuan said excitedly, she walked up and took Ye Qingmei's hand, then took Li Xiaotian's and continued to speak to Li Xiaotian.
"Thank you for taking care of my daughter all these years. You've worked hard."
Li Xiaotian glanced at Ye Qingmei. Seeing her slight shake of her head, he knew that Ye Qingmei had not told Fang Yuan about her experiences in recent years. So he smiled and said.
"It's not hard, it's all I should do. In the past three years, the most difficult one was Qingmei. She has suffered the most grievances."
Hearing this, Ye Qingmei's eyes turned red again, and tears flowed silently.
Seeing this, Fang Yuan became anxious, flustered, and said anxiously.
"Qingmei, did I do something wrong again? I'm sorry, I'm sorry. I should have found you earlier all these years."
"No, it's nothing. I just thought of something," Ye Qingmei quickly explained. Da Feng Novel Network
Although Ye Qingmei had recognized Fang Yuan as her mother, she had not changed her address. Fang Yuan was not in a hurry about this. She knew that her daughter had suffered too much grievance in her heart, but she was willing to wait and compensate.
"Qingmei, don't worry. This afternoon, I'll call your father to tell him this good news. I will compensate you for all the grievances you have suffered over the years, and the Zhao family will also compensate you," Fang Yuan said. As she thought of her daughter living alone and miserably for so many years, her heart was filled with heartache.
Hearing this, Ye Qingmei shook her head and quickly said.
"No need. I recognize you, but that doesn't mean I will recognize that father and the Zhao family. From now on, our family will only accept you. I don't want you to compensate me for anything."
"This... alright," Fang Yuan sighed, but did not force it. She understood Zhao Tianlong's personality and knew how the people of the Zhao family acted. Ye Qingmei's choice was the best.
Although she really wanted to see a family reunion and hoped that the Zhao family would compensate her daughter, it would inevitably lead to many unexpected events.
After that, Ye Qingmei and Fang Yuan chatted about daily life, and Li Xiaotian accompanied them. Seeing the smile on Ye Qingmei's face gradually increase, he was also happy.
It wasn't until it was almost time to pick up Tiantian from school that Li Xiaotian remembered the order he had given to the Zhao family yesterday. He couldn't help but smile apologetically, having played a joke on the Zhao family, hoping they wouldn't be scared.
Thinking of this, Li Xiaotian called Long Yi and ordered to stop all actions against the Zhao family and restore everything to its original state.
More than ten minutes later, in the capital, all the high-level members of the Zhao family gathered again at the old Zhao family residence.
Old Master Zhao had a strange expression, not knowing how to speak. Yesterday, he thought the Zhao family had encountered its biggest difficulty, but just now, this disaster had passed. This made him very confused, and he didn't know what had happened at all.
In the hall, everyone in the Zhao family looked at Old Master Zhao, and each of them was uneasy.
Could it be that the Zhao family could not overcome this tribulation?
Was the Zhao family finished?
Thinking of this, many people's faces turned pale. If the Zhao family was finished, what would happen to them?
"Father, how is the situation?" Zhao Tiancheng, the head of the Zhao family, asked bravely, having prepared for the worst.
"Cough, cough." Old Master Zhao coughed and looked at everyone in the hall, then grinned and said.
"It's fine now. Everyone, go back to your work. The Zhao family is still the Zhao family it was before."
"What?" Everyone in the hall was stunned, not understanding Old Master Zhao's meaning. What was fine? What did it mean that the Zhao family was still the Zhao family it was before?
"Father, what do you mean?" Zhao Tiancheng continued to ask.
"It means what it says. Just ten minutes ago, Old Master Ouyang and I had just spoken on the phone. Our cooperation with the Zhao family will continue, and other forces that cooperate with the Zhao family have also expressed their willingness to continue cooperating with the Zhao family," Old Master Zhao said, sighing with emotion. He wondered which important figure was playing such a joke on their Zhao family. With just one sentence, their Zhao family was almost ruined, and with another sentence, their Zhao family was brought back to life. The feeling in between was probably something that ordinary people could not experience.
